Here to network and meet possibly new friends. They say we can chose our friends but not our relations, and this in many ways is true. I have said in order to have good friends. We have first got to be a good friend. I am blessed that my friends have often been in my life from early years or at least from the age of 17. I also make new friends and can honestly state that several do not share my world views, and that's alright. We can become too complacent if nobody ever challenges us. Friends add great richness to life, and nowdays with the internet we can have friends in countries all over the world. I cherish my friends and am grateful that they are in my life. A friend accepts us in our inconsistencies peaks and troughs and all ways It takes time to prove yourself a friend It has to be earned not given lightly.
